I hope the lad realises the potential that Town saw in him and financially benefitted from

An amazing bit of business to have sold a player to Middlesbrough - and in reality he should have been given a free transfer to Cleethorpes Town.
No - after being shoved around - he’s showing he’s better than that and it’s good to see.

Montel Gibson scored 31 goals in 46 games at a similar level to what Cove Rangers play in Scotland, that certainly didn't translate to becoming a good league player. It's pretty rare that somebody comes from that sort of football and joins a league club then goes on to do something, Barnsley based their recruitment on bringing in lower league players for a while and never really found anybody worth a damn.

Big clubs with larger academy set ups pay fees for young players from smaller teams who'd rather have the money as they don't have the facilities to develop players all the time, most will never make it at that level. Sometimes they go for ridiculous money if they come from a big team, I'm sure I read a few teams were tabling a 50 million bid for some 16 year old from South America.

That was 70 years ago!

They didn’t even have reverse cowgirl in 1963!!


That's just not true. Only a couple of days ago I watched a film called Sherlock Holmes and the Hound of the Bonkervilles and Mrs Hudson did reverse cowgirl with Inspector Lestrade. Watson even asked for a cheeky finger up his Baker Street from the colonel's daughter.

And that was the 19th century.

Yes. Moriarty got a Baker Street irregular from Holmes. Made a frightful mess on the Aspidistra. He'll be cleaning it out of his pipe for weeks.

There was also the time that Holmes  was attempting to give Watson a good seeing to. But was struggling to gain entry.  He instructed Watson to go and squeeze a lemon. They then used the juice as lubricant with amazing results. Watson enquired as to how it worked ? To which Holmes famously replied.

Lemon entry my dear fellow, lemon entry.





Taxi for Civvy 😁


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
